Stratomaster Maxi Single Stratomaster Maxi Single RV-3 Universal Engine RPM and Rotor RPM display The RV-3 unit is a 3.5” instrument providing a universal rev counter that can be adapted to a variety of roles. Typical uses are engine RPM displays or Helicopter / Gyroplane Rotor RPM displays. Digital engine RPM / Rotor RPM display with scale selectable analog display Engine hobbs meter (can be set to current engine time) Engine running timer (can be used as flight timer), resettable to zero at any time. The main display Hobbs Run timer meter Digital RPM display Analog RPM display About RPM measurements Generally, there are two different methods of measuring RPM. The RV-3 unit can be setup to perform either method. The first method involves counting pulses generated by some device in the engine or from a sensor in case of Rotor RPM. Pulses are counted over a period of time and the result is then used to calculate RPM. This method requires a high number of pulses and a short measurement interval. The RV-3 counts pulses for ½ second. This method is suitable for most two stroke engines such as produced by Rotax. Engines producing few pulses (perhaps only one pulse per revolution) and run at low revs, as well as slow turning rotors require a different method. Here the RV-3 can use the time it takes to generate only two pulses as bases for the RPM calculation. The particular method to be used and the number of pulses per revolution are entered as part of the RV-3 setup as given below. Setting up the RV-3 Press the Menu key to enter the menu. You can move forward and backwards in the menu by using the + and – keys. To change or select a menu item, move the highlight to the desired item and then press the Select (Enter) key. To end an edit or function, press the Menu key again. To exit the menu and continue normal operation, press Menu again. Note, all changes you have initiated during your session will only be remembered by the instrument if you exit the menu. Zero FT This function allows you to set the flight timer to zero. The flight timer counts hours and minutes while the engine is running. Set Hobbs This function allows you to set the hobbs meter to your current engine running time. Use the plus and minus buttons to change the indicated part of the hobbs reading. Use the Select button to change from hour hundreds to hours to minutes. End the edit by pressing the Menu button. Scale … Choose your desired scale for the analog RPM display. You can choose values from 500 to 20000 RPM in steps of 500 RPM. You should select a value that is just higher than the highest RPM you expect during operation. Contrast … This function allows you to change the display contrast to your liking. You can select values from about 20 to 45. Backlight … This function allows you to switch the display backlight on or off. Pulse … Select if you want the RV-3 to count pulses from the engine for ½ second period (Fast) or if you want the RV-3 to use the time between pulses to calculate revs (Slow). Typical setups: Rotax 503,582 DCDI - Fast (6 pulses per revolution). Rotax 503 single ignition, Rotax 912/914 – Slow (one pulse per revolution). Gyro Rotor RPM with gear tooth sensor – Fast (about 100 pulses per revolution). Gyro Rotor RPM with single hall effect sensor – Slow (one pulse per revolution). Helicopter Rotor RPM with single hall effect sensor – Slow (one pulse per revolution). Calib … Enter the number of pulses per RPM. For engines with an uneven number of cylinders like three cylinder four stroke engines you can enter values containing fractions (usually 1.5 in this example). Most four stroke engines would generate one pulse for every two revolutions per cylinder. A four cylinder automotive four stroke engine would thus generate 2 pulses per revolution. A typical Rotax DCDI two stroke engine would generate 6 pulses per revolution. The well known Rotax 912/914 engines generate one pulse per revolution. Filter … The RV-3 unit contains a digital filter. This filter is used to achieve a higher resolution of the digital rev counter than is available in ordinary operation. In digital rev counters, resolution is largely dependant on the amount of time given to measure RPM. The more time available, the higher the resolution possible. However, on the downside of this, the more sluggish the display will react to changes in engine settings. Resolution with the RV-3 is dependant on the number of pulses per rev and the type of measurement method you have selected (Pulse Fast/Slow). The update rate for the measurement is a fixed, fast 0.5 seconds. The digital filter is activated whenever input revs are fairly constant and this results in a very high resolution of the digital RPM display in a short time span. The filter needs to be setup for the expected base resolution. This can be between 10 and 30 RPM for most setups. The filter has the following settings: Scale -The setting is made dependant on your Scale selection from 500 to 20000 RPM. The filter factor is fixed as follows: Scale 500 – 10 RPM Scale 10000 – 200 RPM Scale 1000 – 20 RPM Scale 10500 – 210 RPM Scale 1500 – 30 RPM Scale 11000 – 220 RPM Scale 2000 – 40 RPM Scale 11500 – 230 RPM Scale 2500 – 50 RPM Scale 12000 – 240 RPM Scale 3000 – 60 RPM Scale 12500 – 250 RPM Scale 3500 – 70 RPM Scale 13000 – 260 RPM Scale 4000 – 80 RPM Scale 13500 – 270 RPM Scale 4500 – 90 RPM Scale 14000 – 280 RPM Scale 5000 – 100 RPM Scale 14500 – 290 RPM Scale 5500 – 110 RPM Scale 15000 – 300 RPM Scale 6000 – 120 RPM Scale 15500 – 310 RPM Scale 6500 – 130 RPM Scale 16000 – 320 RPM Scale 7000 – 140 RPM Scale 16500 – 330 RPM Scale 7500 – 150 RPM Scale 17000 – 340 RPM Scale 8000 – 160 RPM Scale 17500 – 350 RPM Scale 8500 – 170 RPM Scale 18000 – 360 RPM Scale 9000 – 180 RPM Scale 18500 – 370 RPM Scale 9500 – 190 RPM Scale 19000 – 380 RPM 10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100 – The filter factor can be set to any of these values independent of your scale selection. Choose a filter setting that results in a smooth, high resolution RPM display. A filter setting too low for your setup will result in a “jumpy” display. RPM display will change at your base resolution and no smoothing will happen. Choose the lowest setting that results on a smooth display for greatest sensitivity of the reading. OFF – the digital filter is switched off and the display will result in fastest update rates at the resolution dictated by your setup.

  • Get 'Em out by Friday the Official Release Dates 1968-78 Introduction
    Genesis: Get ‘Em Out By Friday The Official Release Dates 1968-78 Introduction Depending on where one looks for the information, the original release dates of Genesis singles and albums are often misreported. This article uses several sources, including music paper cuttings, websites and books, to try and determine the most likely release date in the UK for their officially released product issued between 1968 and 1978. For a detailed analysis to be completed beyond 1978 will require the input of others that know that era far better than I with the resources to examine it in appropriate levels of detail. My own collection of source material essentially runs dry after 1978. As most people searching for release dates are likely to go to Wikipedia that is where this search for the truth behind Genesis’ back catalogie. The dates claimed on Wikipedia would themselves have come from a number of sources referenced by contributors over the years but what these references lack is the evidence to back up their claims. This article aims to either confirm or disprove these dates with the added bonus of citing where this information stems from. It’s not without a fair share of assumptions and educated deductions but it offers more on this subject than any previously published piece. The main sources consulted in the writing of this article are as follows: 1. The Genesis File Melody Maker 16 December 1972 2. Genesis Information Newsletter Issue No. 1 October 1976 3. Wax Fax by Barry Lazzell - a series of articles on Genesis releases published in Sounds over several weeks in 1977 4.

  • 1 This Was the Year That the Shadows Appeared As Singers Before a Pan
    1975 This was the year that The Shadows appeared as singers before a pan-European audience. The earlier 1973 initiative had not produced the desired outcome and by 1974 they were in the wilderness and did not exist as a viable group. They got together to perform at the Palladium on 27 October of that year as a personal tribute to and for the benefit of the widow of BBC producer Colin Charman. BBC boss Bill Cotton heard them and suggested that they might like to represent the UK at the Eurovision Song Contest the following year. They accepted, formed a working ensemble, and undertook a few local ‘practice’ gigs while preparing and practising the songs. The chosen song, [254] LET ME BE THE ONE, was one of six put forward for the UK’s entry in the Eurovision Contest of 1975, and was the last of the contenders performed over six successive weeks on Lulu’s BBC TV show at the start of the year. It was duly televised in Stockholm on 22 March but came in second to Dutch group Teach-In’s lyrically challenged ‘Dinge-Dong’ ~ English title ‘Ding-A-Dong’ (“Ding- A-Dong every hour,/ When you pick a flower …”), which impressed the British public sufficiently to enjoy a seven-week residence in the Singles charts (climbing to No.13). No such good fortune attended the release of The Shadows’ follow-up to their charting Eurovision Single, another piece from the same composer, the staggeringly inane, hopelessly unamusing [266] RUN BILLY RUN (“Closed my eyes, I tried countin’ sheep,/ Desp-rate Dan just looked like Bo-Peep,/ I can’t sleep”).
